Page, along with Sergey Brin, has changed the face of internet. If these men had not revolutionized the internet, we might still be living in an age of outdated internet browsers.

His invention of PageRank, which became the foundation of Google's search algorithm, has single-handedly changed how we ‘google stuffs.’

Otellini and his contribution to the world of micro-processors is notable. We all are so familiar with the music of Intel, that the moment we hear it, we know that the product is of Intel. This kind of association in consumers takes a lot of time and also a lot of brand building goes into it. Otellini’s hard-work is paying off as Intel is performing very well in financial terms. Otellini quotes to an Oracle blog, “Time plays a very, very critical role in the running of Intel” and so the genesis of many innovations at Intel.
